What Are the Signs of Sciatica?

Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg. Typically, sciatica affects only oneside of your body. It’s often caused by a herniated disc, bone spur on the spine, or narrowing of the spine (spinal stenosis) that compresses part of the nerve. This can result in inflammation, pain, and often some numbness in the affected leg.

Symptoms of
Sciatica

Radiating Pain

Pain that extends from your lower back through your buttock and down the back of your leg. This pain can vary widely, from a mild ache to a sharp, burning sensation or excruciating discomfort.

Tingling or a pins-and-needles feeling in the leg or foot, which can accompany the pain. Some people may also experience muscle weakness in the affected leg.

Dr. Snyder is extremely caring and thorough every visit. He is helping to give the Chiropractic community a good name. He is not like like some Chiropractors that think they can heal everything. My neurologist even agreed that he helped me immensely with my migraines.

Grateful to my chiropractor Dr. Snyder for restoring sensation to my fingers. As a healthcare provider, caring for others is my norm, but this time, it was his chiropractic care and advice that made all the difference for me. Thank you!
